A light ray incident on a block of glass makes an incident angle of 50.0° with the normal to the surface. The refracted ray in t

Vladimir [108]

Answer:

The index of refraction of the glass is 1.3

Explanation:

Given data:

i = incident angle = 50°

r = refracted angle = 36.1°

The index of refraction according Snell´s law is:

$n=\frac{1*sini}{sinr} =\frac{1*sin50}{sin36.1} =1.3$

A circular parallel plate capacitor is constructed with a radius of 0.52 mm, a plate separation of 0.013 mm, and filled with an

olya-2409 [2.1K]

Answer:

289282

Explanation:

r = Radius of plate = 0.52 mm

d = Plate separation = 0.013 mm

A = Area = $\pi r^2$

V = Potential applied = 2 mV

k = Dielectric constant = 40

$\epsilon_0$ = Electric constant = $8.854\times 10^{-12}\ \text{F/m}$

Capacitance is given by

$C=\dfrac{k\epsilon_0A}{d}$

Charge is given by

$Q=CV\\\Rightarrow Q=\dfrac{k\epsilon_0AV}{d}\\\Rightarrow Q=\dfrac{40\times 8.854\times 10^{-12}\times\pi \times (0.52\times 10^{-3})^2\times 2\times 10^{-3}}{0.013\times 10^{-3}}\\\Rightarrow Q=4.6285\times 10^{-14}\ \text{C}$

Number of electron is given by

$n=\dfrac{Q}{e}\\\Rightarrow n=\dfrac{4.6285\times 10^{-14}}{1.6\times10^{-19}}\\\Rightarrow n=289281.25\ \text{electrons}$

The number of charge carriers that will accumulate on this capacitor is approximately 289282.

One billiard ball is shot east at 2.00 m/s. A second, identical billiard ball is shot west at 1.00 m/s. The balls have a glancin

dimulka [17.4K]

Answer:

Velocity is 1.73 m/s along 54.65° south of east.

Explanation:

Let unknown velocity be v, mass of billiard ball be m and east direction be positive x axis.

Here momentum is conserved.

Initial momentum = Final momentum

Initial momentum = m x 2i + m x (-1)i = m i

Final momentum = m x v + m x 1.41 j = mv + 1.41 m j

Comparing

mi = mv + 1.41 m j

v = i - 1.41 j

Magnitude of velocity

$v=\sqrt{1^2+(-1.41)^2}=1.73m/s$

Direction,

$\theta =tan^{-1}\left ( \frac{-1.41}{1}\right )=-54.65^0$

Velocity is 1.73 m/s along 54.65° south of east.

Why did Thomson observe two glowing dots when he put neon gas into a<br> cathode-ray tube?

Artist 52 [7]

Answer:

Electrons accelerated to high velocities travel in straight lines through an empty cathode ray tube and strike the glass wall of the tube, causing excited atoms to fluoresce or glow.
